MMB MUSIC, INC. CELEBRATING 10 YEARS IN GRAND CENTER

MMB MUSIC, INC, marks 10 years in its Grand Center location this month. The
company is a publisher/distributor of concert music for orchestra, opera,
concert band, and chamber ensemble as well as books, videos, and recordings for the creative arts therapies and classroom music education. MMB is the sole US agent for Studio 49 Orff instruments used in Carl Orff's innovative concept for music education and in music therapy.

Norm Goldberg, president of MMB, founded the company in 1964 and located it next to his former business, Baton Music Company, on Delmar and Westgate in University City. It later moved to a larger location in the Page Industrial area and to its current location in the Contemporary Arts Building at 3526 Washington Avenue in Grand Center, the arts and entertainment center of St Louis.

MMB offers music by over 150 living American composers including Pulitzer
Prize winner George Walker. Bruce Adolphe, Donald Crockett, Daniel Dorff,
Stephen Gerber, Stephen Hartke, Cindy McTee, Lalo Schifrin, Sheila Silver, David Stock, and Gwyneth Walker are just a few MMB composers whose music is played often in the USA and throughout the world.

"Introduction to the Musical Brain" by Don Campbell was one of the first books published by MMB. Campbell is the author of the very popular "The Mozart Effect ®"and "The Mozart Effect® for Children" books and series of recordings. MMB hosts the Mozart Effect Resource Center for information about music and the brain, learning resources, and is one location where all Don Campbell's books and recordings can be purchased.

Important books for the creative arts and wellness include titles of special interest to musicians such as "The Musicians Survival Manual" for the treatment and prevention of injuries in musicians by Dr Richard Norris, "Toward the Zen of Performance" for the development of self-confidence in the performer by Dori Berger, and "To Hear Ourselves as Others Hear Us" using tape recording as a tool in music practicing and teaching by James Boyk.
